You want to hurt me don’t you?
God...just the look in your eyes
Tell me that this is a time
I’m definitely going to cry
You scare yourself
By this urge, this need
This constant ache
To spank me until I almost bleed
Does the power frighten you?
That I’m able to bare all I am
Give my body up to you
So that you can use me until I can’t stand
Baby, don’t fret, I understand
It’s not that you truly want to hurt me
I know that you completely adore me
But you can’t help but want to control me
No, you’re not abusive, love
Contrary to what you think
You’re able to control your actions
Because you stop yourself at that brink
We’re consenting adults
I’ve put my emotions and body in your hands
I’ve given you permission to do this
Baby, don’t cry, I understand
This is something I need as well
I need to feel your hands on my skin
Delivering delicious, tantalizing pain
It helps to heal my demons within
We all have demons, my sweet one
But we sort them out differently
Just because I’m the one on my knees
Know that you too are submitting
During these times, you’re sharing as well
You’re baring all that you hold sacred
I can see your pain and see your nightmares
But you release it through aggression instead
We’re meant to be together like this
We’re yin and yang, my love
We balance each other perfectly
Without each other, it’s never enough
Just give me a gentle kiss
Before you place the collar around my neck
Know that I’m with you on this
I trust you to keep yourself in check
This connection we have
Is what I’ve wanted all my life
And know that as you do this
I’m proving my love for you when I cry...
